Topley goes under the radar for me. Quality bowler
The margin of victory is irrelevant to NRR. Which I always thought was how it was based.Strongly positive too. Minnow bashing is essential for qualifying. Pakistan only beating Netherlands by 80 runs could cost them, even more so if they lose to SL.
I must be missing another variable. As just looking at South Africa/Sri Lanka NRR that doesn't work.That surely can't be right?
If a team is bowled out, their total is divided by 50.The margin of victory is irrelevant to NRR. Which I always thought was how it was based.
It's about how your run rate minus the oppositions run rate.
As far as I can tell if a side say was 20 all out from 2 overs, you'd have to knock them off faster to have a positive NRR.
Amazing cheers palIf a team is bowled out, their total is divided by 50.
If you chase a total down, your RR is taken.
So in your scenario, if you've scored say 250 batting first, and bowl a side out for 20, you get an NRR boost of 4.6 (I think). Similarly if they're bowled out for 20 batting first, then if you do it in 4 overs that's your boost.
And just to confirm that, if you look at the table here you can see the for and against.Amazing cheers pal
I've always just ignored NRR, but as we started off so poorly this time. Felt had to get to grips with it.And just to confirm that, if you look at the table here you can see the for and against.
Taking England for example, their 'against' number features the 36.2 overs it took for NZ to chase down 283, however, the Bangladesh total is given the full 50 overs despite being bowled out in the 49th.
